red-outs and HIDs. Inexpensive and simple mods to start with. My car came already tinted.

My first modification was H&R Sport Springs. I just couldn't stand the wheel gap on the IS!

Would like to drop it at some point as well (she may notice that one...).
I hear that, I'm on the same page. Luckily our's was already lowered when we bought it
Already put on some eyelines from Carson and now trying to agree on wheels
